Recently something rather annoying has started happening; key codes have

If I move to a place in the file and type ^W quickly and then pause
before typing ], then it will timeout after around a second. If I move
to a place in the file and then wait for a small period of time, the ^W
will no longer time out.
It looks like something related to the CursorHold time is happening, but
I can't for the life of me work out what it is. Any ideas?
Cheers!

As your subject hints, try
:verbose set timeout? ttimeout? timeoutlen? ttimeoutlen?
then read the help about these 4 options.
In a nutshell, to have Vim time out after 0.25 second for multibyte
keycodes (generated by the keyboard driver) and after only 5 seconds
when you're typing the {lhs} of a mapping, use
:set timeout ttimeoutlen=250 timeoutlen=5000
To time out after 0.1 second for keycodes and never for mappings, use
:set notimeout ttimeout ttimeoutlen=100
etc. The default is one second for both.
Best regards,
Tony.
